    This is an amazing, for the sole reason that everyone who is 17 and change now will turn 18, be able to smoke, the law will bump to 19, they won’t be allowed to smoke any more, but then they’ll turn 19 and they’ll be able to smoke again until the law raises to 20…

      I believe they passed a similar law like this in New Zealand. You could be 50 and still too young to smoke lol.

      Smokefree action plan: Cigarette sales to be banned for younger generations
